I wouldn't say that we're all starting from the same spot because there's guys like Keenan where he he you know, he came in and you know, I May We were in the hotel together for a while and and and we'd be sitting down just you know, eating dinner and playing cards and then we'd you know, have a break and we rattle off some plays. And that was when I was first learning and and and he kind of have like an idea of what the play was. So it's nice having you know, people like that around, you know, a couple of vets, and I know it helps rooms have people like that around to where it's you know, when you get out there, he's teaching you movements, he's teaching you how you know works in the NFL.

The bar is certainly high for the number one overall pick of the Chicago Bears. Caleb Williams steve the bar very low for Bears quarterbacks historically, over all the past sixty years or so, it's been certainly a motley crew. This now is what Kayleb Williams is walking into a better situation that we've seen for a lot of number one picks through the years, with all the additions that they made, the weaponry they put around him, also the defense that they have with Matt Eberflus here, what are your expectations, What do you be watching for as Caleb Williams and the Bears get out there as a whole on the practice field starting tomorrow.

Well, I love Matt Eberflus came out today and said he's gonna play between forty five and fifty five snaps in preseason games. Remember they have four preseason games because they're playing in the Pro Football Hall of Fame Game, And this could be something where we see him even in that game, get a series or two, and then you double it the next game. In a third preseason game, you let him play a half and maybe start the third quarter, and then you sit him for that final preseason game. But I think that will get him everything from getting used to stretch lines, to stadiums to everything. The little quirtch we don't necessarily think about kind of that go with the game itself.

They got an experienced play caller in Shane Walders came over there from Saley's worked with different types of quarterbacks through the years. He's got a lot of weapons around him. When you look at the Keenan Allen acquisition, when you look at DJ Moore still being there in Roe Madoonsa and signing DeAndre Swift cold the Bears seemed to draft the tight end every year for like a decade. The table is set here, but again, the expectations will be high, even though that bar is low.

They made a run with Jay Cutler. They went to a super Bowl with Rex Scrozman. This is where that's true. This is what Cayleb Williams now is walking into. You know what was experienced, Well, not quite the entire super Bowl era of Bears quarterbacks, but certainly a good chunk of it. Our buddy Adam Rank, who often appears on this show.

He's going to be back to do the AFC West State of the Franchise later on. He's a brilliant analyst of the game. But in this moment, Rank, if we welcome you into the show, I just want you to put on your Bear's super fan hat for a moment. You've waited a long time for what looks like potentially the face of the franchise quarterback they have not had in your lifetime. As you say them rhyming seem arrivy. You see him hitting the practice field tomorrow, What are the emotions like? What's going through your body and your brain right now?

First of all, this is very unfair to Jim McMahon, who was a very good quarterback who won a Super Bowl. Obviously, Jay Cutler had some fine times, and then it's Walter Payton on the halfback option, the three best Bears quarterbacks in my lifetime. The one thing that I really appreciate about what the Bears have done with Caleb Williams so far is that he comes into camp with no competition. Remember a couple of years ago, when Mitch Trubisky was there, they had signed Mike Glennon and they did the song and dance with them. When Justin Field was brought in, they had Andy Dalton on the team, and again it was well, we're going to sort of work him in. They didn't really have a plan. There has been a plan since day one for Caleb Williams, and the plan was to get him on the field as quickly as possible and surround him with the most talent that's ever surrounded a number one overall draft pick. So I think that the expectations should be a little bit higher because I think that people tend to forget this Bears team won seven.

They didn't have the number one pick because they were awful. It was because Carolina was awful. Now they've got a great opportunity to go out there and make some noise. And in addition to those seven wins, they had three losses where they had over a ninety percent chance of winning. It didn't work out for them. We should have high expectations, and I say we as a collective, not just Bears fans, but fans of the NFL in general, because this Bears team is going to hit the ground running.

There's also another rookie quarterback in the NFC North who now is officially under contract. That is JJ McCarthy, who agreed to terms today with the Minnesota Vikings on his fully guaranteed four year contract with a fifty year option in plenty of time before the Vikings rookies report to camp on Sunday. JJ McCarthy Steve walks into a situation where he's not the unquestioned starter like Caleb William. It's not a certainty that he's out there in Week one. But when you trade up even one spot and you go and get a guy in the top ten at quarterback, everyone knows JJ McCarthy's time is coming. That competition with Sam Darnold, who started a bunch of games for a bunch of teams, will be one of the fascinating storylines following camp.

Yeah, I mean, look and the meter is running. Like you said, he drafts a quarterback dot high. He's going to be the starter at one time and at one point this season. But head coach Kevin O'Connell came out and said, you can't write it necessarily down as to when that's going to happen.

Going to be how much does McCarthy take to the offense, how much does he understand opposing coverages, how much does he understand the protection plan. But more than anything, and this goes overlooked a lot of time times, is how do the other ten guys in the huddle respond to him? If all of a sudden there's a little more bounce in their step over and over like okay, then maybe you accelerate getting him on the field, like this is the guy we feel comfortable with.

One of the questions on JJ McCarthy coming on in the draft, of course, was well, why didn't they throw the football more? They were a run dominant team, they didn't have to pass the ball a lot. He impressed a lot of people with what he did is pro day. The fact that he slung it the way that he did played his way into being a guy who nobody would have had as a first round prospect probably going into this season, ends up a top ten pick, is certainly going to have a lot of eyes on him in camp in Minnesota. Meanwhile, a couple picks later, Bonnette became a Denver Bronco. That was really not a surprise to a lot of people within the league, who said, fifty two careers starts the son of a coach. He's going to do exactly what Sean Payton tells him to do. It's the perfect fit in Denver. Nick said recently that he expects a and I quote very respectful competition with Zach Wilson and Jared Stidham. Respectfully, it's hard to imagine this competition doesn't go in the direction in Nix.

You hear a lot of people say that Zach Wilson really looked good in offseason workouts as he should have. He's got veteran experience, he's got incredible talent, But this is a young player that Sean Payton wants to build his team around.

So we're going to see how this competition goes.

Because as much as you know that there's still kind of a grace period as to what they're going to do with the Broncos, Sean Payton has to win ball games, right people, Nothing's going to get fired, but at some point people are going to say in New Orleans, was it Breeze or was it Peyton? If Sean Payton doesn't continue to win ball game. So I think this is a situation where he's going to put the best person in but bo Nick is the guy they're going to groom to get in there. So that respectful competition might get disrespectful pretty soon.

And they've been in a transition phase through the course of the Soft Seed and you trade away Jerry Judy, John Cortland Sutton who still wants a new contract, and that situation remains to be resolved here as we lead up to the reporting date for training camp next week, they've got a lot of young guys that they're excited about. Ly one of Bonex's former college teammates. They've invested in that position, but who emerges as the pass catchers is going to be certainly one of the big storylines as we talk about the Broncos moving forward. Meanwhile, another contract situation that remains unresolved is in Green Bay, where Jordan Love Well to this point, has not gotten a new deal to replace the one year that's left on the Bridge Deal, the band aid deal that he signed last year to avert the Packers having to exercise his fifty option. Reporters tried to ask Jordan love at his charity event last week, a pr guy who doesn't understand that the media shows up to those events so that they can get off one question about football topics jumped in would and let him answer it. The answers, though, Steve, are going to come soon. It's not a matter of if the Packers get something done with Jordan Love, it's a matter of when. And the price is about as high as you could possibly have bet.

Look, this is a guy who waited a long time to start, so waiting to get this deal done is something he's probably like, Okay, it's going to get done, like you said, Tom, But it is the number.

These crazy fifty million dollars a year plus APY contracts that's kind of the going rate in three or four years from now. That may be kind of a bargain floor rate, a middle of the market rate. So he's probably going to get something like that because he proved over the back half of the last season that the investment that they have made in him in terms of developing him and sticking with him to replace Aaron Rodgers, was worth it. And he is the reason why and what we saw at the end of last year and how he to b is why the Green Bay Packers are going to be in the playoff conversation all season long because they have pieces in place, including Tom a group of young receivers and tight ends.

Also had Marshawn Lloyd in the draft, they got j Dillon back. Every wide receiver and tight end on the team last year was a rookie or a second year player. And those guys delivered down the stretch. Another year of experience, another year for Jordan Love. This is a situation where the player has the leverage. The price is only going to go up if he continues to do what he's doing. Let's see if they can come to it accord prior to training camp so that everybody can turn their full attention to.

Kenyon Drake, who ran for over thirty eight hundred yards, announced today that he is retiring. He was part of this play, one of the wildest in NFL history, from Devonte Parker to Kenyan Drake.

Yeah, Tom, let's start with Brian Thomas Junior. I can't wait to see him in training camp. He's their first round big and he's got a big opportunity to replace the role vacated by Calvin Ridley. Remember Ridley had that last minute switch to go to the Tennessee Titaness, their division rival, and that's over one thousand yards seventy six receptions out of the door, and Brian Thomas has an opportunity to get that role very quickly. Trevor Lawrence loves to throw the deep ball, and it just so happens that Brian Thomas one of his best skill sets is creating vertical separation down the field.

Remember Ridley had that last minute switch to go to the Tennessee Titaness, their division rival, and that's over one thousand yards seventy six receptions out of the door, and Brian Thomas has an opportunity to get that role very quickly. Trevor Lawrence loves to throw the deep ball, and it just so happens that Brian Thomas one of his best skill sets is creating vertical separation down the field.

I talk with coaches this all season.

I talk with coaches this all season.

They discussed how everything they saw on tape at LSU has shown up early in OTAs his speed, his ability to separate, and I can't wait to see him pass going against number one defenses in training camp. I was at LSU's pro day where everybody was talking about Melik Neighbors and Jaye Daniels, and I had one GM just rating to me about Brian Thomas.

He said, I see Brandon Iyuk in this game. I think what he can.

He said, I see Brandon Iyuk in this game. I think what he can.

Do in the NFL is a lot more than what he was asked to do in LSU, and he can be a number one receiver sooner than later. And tom last thing, I talked to one Jaguars coach about Brian Thomas. He had one nugget of constructive quitter's criticism. He said, I want him to be more vocal. He's been so smart, he's getting so much, but he's quiet. And I don't know about you, tom My. Coaches and teachers had the opposite complain about me. They said I wouldn't shut up, and I was less than one percent of the talent that Brian Thomas was, So I think he'll be all right.

And here's the thing that was a real comparison that I heard the same thing through the course of the process, which was if you just look at the measurables on Brian Thomas, you look at Brian Thomas's highlight reel, it arguably is as good or better than Malik Neighbors. But Malik Neighbors was the in that program. He was the one who wanted the ball. He was the emotional leader. Brian Thomas the play was up and down. He didn't always see him exude that type of passion. So it'd be fascinating to see how the dynamics kind of work out, especially because there is a big void for somebody to step forward as that number one wide receiver. Meanwhile, Trevor Lawrence, we know he got paid, he got the fifty five million dollars per year. His own play has been inconsistent at times. The Jaguars offense didn't play well down the stretch last season. Heading into twenty twenty four, Cam, what are they looking for out.

Of Trevor Lawrence.

Of Trevor Lawrence.

Yeah, big money.

Yeah, big money.

Trevor comes with big expectations, and look, that's the reality of their situation, the perils of pressure and expectations. Jaguars fans expect them to get back to where they were in twenty twenty two. The highlight of the Trevor Lawrence and Doug Peterson are in that second half of the season where they made the playoff one, they won a playoff game, and last year they took a step back. They collapsed late in the season, and so Trevor Lawrence has talked about that and he said, I accepted as the franchise quarterback. I don't feel any extra pressure. But the one thing he does need to work on is his turnovers. He's had sixty turnovers in his first three seasons, most of any quarterback. And while he's shown a lot of potential he's a really good quarterback. To get to that great level with some of the elite quarterbacks that we.

Talk about all the time, those turnovers have to take a dip.

Talk about all the time, those turnovers have to take a dip.

And talking to the people in that building, they believe sometimes it's just him being a superhero trying to do too much at times, and they hope this year with him being more vocal in the offense, being more comfortable and having more experience than he can take the safer route at times. Remember Trevor's not even twenty five yet so even though he's big money, he's still learning and they thinking you're four, he can elevate and see that next level of his game. I can't wait to get to do Vault because one early thing to watch will be his chemistry with those receivers Brian Thomas as we discussed, but also Gabe Davis.

How early do they click with those two fast outside receivers. We know he's going to be throwing the ball to Christian Kirk and Evan Ingram, but those other two that could be the key to unlocking how far is Jaguars team can go and if they can steal that division back from the Houston Texans, who.

We're going to talk with you about another former number one overall pick in just a little bit. But first let's talk a little bit about another highly drafted quarterback from a year ago. That is Anthony Richardson of the Indianapolis Colts, who made four starts as a rookie last season, got injured in three of them. Season ended he had shoulder surgery. Everything seemed to be heading into the right direction. Did miss the last day of mini camp. Sounds like they just threw a ton of balls the day before decided to hold him back. Richardson said himself that he's been feeling really good as we get set to head into training camp.

Job one obviously, don't take those hits, stay on the front. What else can he do if he accomplishes job one?

Job one obviously, don't take those hits, stay on the front. What else can he do if he accomplishes job one?

Well, first off, you know, Chris ballad general manager, said he's going to be a full go when they start training camp, So that's a good sign. Like you said, the durability protecting himself. But Shane Stike and his head coach is showing to be a very creative play designer, so they're going to do some things to get him on the move but also play him in the pocket. The thing that Anthony Richardson has to live up to is nine and eight. That's the record that they had last season when he wasn't there most of the time when Gardner Minshew was playing quarterback. They don't want to dip below that line there, which would put him below five hundred when he's supposed to be the answer to their problems. They don't have some of the drama they had last year. Tom remember this time they had Jonathan Taylor wanting a contract extension coming into training camp.

That was an issue.

That was an issue.

It's all calm seas right now if they're our seas in the Midwest, Indianapolis. So Anthony Richardson, he's got an opportunity. You're seeing him right here just doing an RPO. He's running it, but he's got to protect himself. What he does is that's not going to go away. That's part of their offense. It's part of what they're going to be able to do because he is such a special athletic talent. But again, just approve the accuracy, stay on the field. I think Shane Stiken and the supporting staff are going to help him.

That defense, that defense is stacked. They had Laotu lot to off the edge to combine with Putty pay at Sampson abucom they could get a lot of takeaways to get Anthony Richardson some more possessions.

So obviously we you know, we see a lot of Aaron Rodgers there, but I'm glad we got your face in that little hype video because this defense top to bottom looks like it's set up to be among the NFL's best. What do you see being around that team throughout the course of the spring, and what's your expectations for this season?

I mean, you said it there.

I mean, you said it there.

We're looking to be the NFL's best, and there's not a doubt in our mind we are. So we just got to build on what we did last year. And you know, we do a great job of, you know, holding no excuses. So whatever the case may be, we have to prevail. And you know, it's hard for a team to beat if they scored zero points, So that's always the goal.

So Robert Sala, I know we's spent more time working with the offense, being around the offense in those meetings for the course of the offseason. Tell me about Jeff Oldbrick, a guy who probably doesn't get talked about a lot Becauseola has got a defensive background, But I know from just talking to people around that building that he's a guy who's really valued.

Easier when you have a coach like that, you know, leading you because you know you've they've done it and they've done it at a high level. So yeah, I mean that speaks for itself. Let alone kind of how he enters the day every single day with a you know, a great head on their shoulders and a great outlook. And I mean he's a guy that's hitted me of just getting through, you know, and battling triumph, you know what I mean. So I'll just look up tremendously to him and you know how he operates for sure.

All right, So let's talk about that quarterback number. Eight.

We got all four snaps from him last season. He was there through most of the spring activities. What do you see right now at Aaron Rodgers.

First ballot Hall of Famer. That'll never change.

First ballot Hall of Famer. That'll never change.

So, like you said, four snaps into the you know, twenty twenty three season, we lost him and that was a huge hit. But I mean, like you said, he's been at all the voluntary stuff and he's been balling being here, and so I mean, I'm just excited to play with him. I grew up watching them, and you know, I'm excited to be his teammate, and i know he's going to come through for us, and you know, my goal is to just come through for the team.

You grew up though, Eden Prairie, Minnesota. Were you a Vikings fan? Were you rooting against Aaron Rodgers all those Packers years?

You grew up though, Eden Prairie, Minnesota. Were you a Vikings fan? Were you rooting against Aaron Rodgers all those Packers years?

I couldn't help it. I couldn't help but do that. And you know, being a Vikings fan back then was pretty hard. You know, he always got there but didn't really make anything shake. So, I mean, Aaron's been dogging guys in the league for quite a long time now, So I'm just excited. You know, I'm going to be on the right side of it, and you know, backing him up.

Well.

Well.

Obviously a lot was made of Aaron not being at the two days of the mandatory mini camp. He was traveling at the time. Coach Sall said it was on excuse how much of it all did the locker room care about that? And how much if any, does it impact he as he had in the training camp here.

Zero impact. I mean we didn't care.

Zero impact. I mean we didn't care.

He had stuff he had to handle, and like you said, he's been at all the voluntary stuff, So it doesn't really make much sense to sit there and scrutinize a guy that's been at all the things he doesn't have to, especially a first ballot Hall of Famer that you know a lot of people would think that, you know, why would you have to go to that or why would you go to that? Still, but I mean he has been and he's been stepping up and being the leader for this team as everybody expects him to be and he expects of himself. So I mean there's zero impact. We know he's he's airing on and off the field, and you know he's going to be a great leader that everybody looks up to and you know, continue to be so.

This is going to be determining what happens with the future of this franchise and really the legacy of Sean Payton moving forward.
